How to adjust the tension of the timing belt?Difference between timing belt and drive v belt

The conveyor belt improves the production efficiency in the normal production process, and increases the output while solving the labor force. It is very important for the correct use and maintenance of the conveyor belt. The problem often encountered is the tightness problem. Too loose is easy to slip, and too tight is easy to damage parts. Heiyi Rubber introduces how to adjust the tightness of the timing belt, At the same time, the difference between timing belt and drive v-belt is popularized.

How to adjust the tension of the timing belt

1. Turn off the power supply, clean the guide rail with a clean soft cloth, and then drip lubricating oil on the guide rail. After the oil is applied, let the slider roll back and forth on the guide rail to ensure that the lubricating oil enters the inside of the slider. After oiling, let the slider roll back and forth on the guide rail. At this time, it is necessary to install the guide rail first. Pay attention not to fix the guide rail first. Install all the fixing nails to keep them horizontal. Then fix the timing belt with the slider, and then install the lens. Adjust the direction of X direction to finish.

2. The bearing is oiled. In order to ensure a good use effect, some bearings need to be oiled regularly. Wipe off the floating soil on the bearing with a clean soft cloth, use a needle tube to suck the oil into the needle tube, and then slowly inject the bearing with a needle, and then slowly rotate the bearing when filling the oil.

Influence of too loose and too tight timing belt

1. There are several timing belts in the transmission system. If the timing belt is too loose, it will slip or shake severely, which will cause the transmission system to not work normally; If the timing belt is too tight, parts will be worn.

2. If the timing belt is not used properly, it will affect the service life of the timing belt and machinery. If you want to have a longer service life, you must adjust the tension of the timing belt.

Difference between timing belt and drive v-belt

The main differences between timing belt and v-belt transmission are different transmission work, different structural characteristics and different uses.

1. Transmission works differently

Drive v belt: when v-belt drive is working, the belt is placed in the corresponding groove on the pulley, and the drive is realized by the friction between the belt and the groove.

Timing belt: When the timing belt drive is working, the working surface of the belt is made into a tooth shape, and the rim surface of the pulley is also made into a corresponding tooth shape. The belt and pulley are mainly driven by meshing.

2. Different structural characteristics

Drive v belt: drive v belt has good contact with the wheel, small slip, relatively stable transmission ratio and stable operation.

Timing belt: the timing belt drive has compact structure and good wear resistance.

3. Different uses

Drive v belt: v-belt drive is suitable for occasions with short center distance and large transmission ratio (about 7), and can also work well in vertical and inclined transmission.

Timing belt drive: timing belt drive is mainly used for occasions requiring accurate transmission ratio.
